If approved, Fix America's Schools Today (FAST) -- Senate Bill 1597 introduced by Ohio Senator Sherrod Brown and House Bill 2948, introduced by Connecticut Representative Rosa DeLauro -- will eliminate $30 billion in deferred maintenance in public elementary and secondary schools and community colleges. It will improve the health and education of children and employ hundreds of thousands of workers.

But our representatives need to hear from citizens, students, teachers, parents, and the workers and businesses that provide building services to our school districts.
